Description

Currently the info modals regarding the "Considerations Before Licensing" links to the wiki page Considerations for licensors and licensees. But there's also the same (?) page on creativecommons.org.

Which one is the correct one? In any case, the URL slug of the latter should probably be improved.

Both are correct, but I think linking to the second one would be better, since creativecommons.org is more known and user friendly than the wiki.

While I completely agree that the creativecommons page is better in terms of user-friendliness, currently we cannot link to the specific section of the text there ('Consideration for licensEE/licensORs'), so I think until we add the section anchors on creativecommons.org, it's better to leave it as is.

I originally raised the issue because I thought there might be differences in what is kept up to date. From a readability perspective I'd actually prefer to read the wiki page at the moment because it has a table of contents and more dense vertical spacing. I feel a little bit lost on the respective site at creativecommons.org.

@RATED-R-SUNDRAM Since this issue has been labelled with awaiting triage so the issue is not ready for work yet.

I am closing this issue as it is best to leave the links as-is. Thank you to everyone who put thought into this problem.
